2017 is the year of the slasher with Chucky, Leatherface, Jigsaw, Samara, Creeper, Annabelle & Glenn Douglas Packard’s well-received, Film Festival Award Winning indie horror ‘Pitchfork’ is the modern day slasher with the feel of the classic horror genre. Made with only one camera and shot in just 21 days, ‘Pitchfork’ has struck a chord with film fans, horror buffs and filmmaking aficionados alike.

Despite its low-budget and guerrilla-style construction, ‘Pitchfork’ not only looks like a multimillion dollar, big studio movie but has been covered by major Hollywood publications like The Hollywood Reporter, L.A Times, Indie Wire and Deadline. Film Festivals have taken notice of ‘Pitchfork’ as well, honoring it with top awards, including Best Horror, Best Director, Best Cinematographer awards to name a few.

Like “The Blair Witch Project” and “Paranormal Activity”, “Pitchfork” is further proof that you don’t need big bucks, just a big idea and lots of drive, to make a solid genre film.

Art work done by the brilliant actor that played ‘Pa’ in the film, Andrew Dawe-Collins.

Having recently coming out to his family, Hunter recruits his friends to come with him from New York City to the farm where he grew up as he faces his parents for the first time.
